"Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. There are no presents, but I think it's a gift just to be with ..." — Marcus Semien

We play the most games in all of sports. All the sports you watch, everybody talks about baseball and 'How do you play 162 games?' Well, that's what we do. And that's why we show up every day, to continue to get better, no matter how our body feels, and we'll use the crowd energy and any adrenaline we can get to perform at our best.

I still see myself as a shortstop since I've been playing the position for so long, but I moved over there to second and I'm hitting more home runs, so it's all good.

The success you have in the minors through hard work and good coaches helps get you a chance.
